Fundraising idea: Show us your pets!
We know working from home means you are accompanied by trusty “new colleagues”, they’re great friends for kids with cancer as well, so here is a way to get them involved in your next team engagement activity for Redkite. By adding in a small entry fee to participate you will be helping to raise vital funds for kids with cancer.
A guide on setting up your pet talent competition!
Set a date and promote it to the wider team working remotely
Decide on your pet or talent categories!
Some ideas… cats/birds/dogs only, fetching skills, roll over, spin, best dressed, handshakes
Dust off those pet props and costumes.
You could even schedule in a wash or groom beforehand to receive extra points for presentation
Start a live chat conversion.
Here you can ask Redkite Fundraisers to help and set up a donation portal, where your team members can donate $5 to enter.
Log into your company video conferencing and vote on who’s pet does the best tricks.
You can nominate judges and have them score each pet on a scale of 1 – 5, this role is great for team members who don’t have pets!
Ask team members to take a screenshot of the virtual competition and post it on the company’s intranet or social media
Use the hashtag #PetsGotTalent.
Offer fun-pet themed prizes for the pets with the best tricks!
Don’t forget to share with us your winning competitor!
Happy competing to all pets and pet owners involved!
